The Paranormal Activity franchise is gearing up for a brand new installment from Paramount and Blumhouse, with James Wan coming on board to produce the film alongside Jason Blum and franchise creator/original director Oren Peli.
Ian Tuason (Undertone) will direct the eighth installment in the Paranormal Activity film franchise, and we’ve learned tonight that it will release in theaters May 21, 2027.
A24 recently acquired Ian Tuason’s Undertone for release. It’s coming this March.
In Undertone, “Paranormal podcast host Evy moves into her dying mother’s house to be her primary caregiver. When she receives audio recordings of a young pregnant couple experiencing supernatural noises, she realizes the woman’s story mirrors her own. Each new recording scratches at her sanity, drawing her into a fate she cannot escape.”
Stay tuned for much more on Paranormal Activity 8 as we learn it.
“I’ve been a huge admirer of Paranormal Activity since the brilliant first movie, with its creeping slow burn and subtle ability to make the unseen terrifying. I’m looking forward to expanding on its legacy and helping shape the next evolution of this scary found-footage franchise,” James Wan told THR when the news recently broke about his involvement.
